Welcome to the official website for Queen Camel Parish Council

We are a small Parish, but we get involved in as many aspects of the community as we can. As well as the full Parish Council, we also have a Finance and Risk committee to deal with this specific area. We really value the involvement of all our parishioners and all of our meetings are open to the public. View interactive map showing information about the local area.
